So that others may come to know a transformed life through a holy,
loving, forgiving and accepting God, we joyfully worship and proclaim the Good News of Christ's love.In 1944 God brought a pastor and ten people together to establish Faith Lutheran Church in Marysville, California. On October 31, 1945 (Reformation Day) they were led to purchase the present property. Since that time the congregation has gathered here for worship, education, community service, and fellowship to meet the spiritual needs of people residing in the Yuba/Sutter area.
Faith Lutheran Church is located in downtown Marysville across from Ellis Lake, a picturesque place to linger and reflect before or after our church activities. Being the only worshiping community placed here we have become known as "the Church by the Lake".
Faith Lutheran Church is part of the larger Christian Church as a congregation in the Evangelical Lutheran Church in America (ELCA). The ELCA and we can trace our roots to the reform movement begun by Martin Luther in the Sixteenth Century. We invite all Christians to hear God's Word preached and taught faithfully and to share in the benefits of the sacraments of Baptism and Holy Communion (Eucharist). By the sharing of Word and Sacrament, God nourishes our faith, forgives our sin, and calls us to be witnesses to the gospel of our Savior and Lord Jesus Christ.
